build-profile

build-profile is a skill for Claude Code from Miracle-Aligner/job-search-hq. It costs 100 tokens per session (542 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A profile-building workflow that creates a plain-text candidate profile and a structured JSON profile for Job Search HQ. It can use a CV, LinkedIn information, or an older profile, or ask a short set of questions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or update a job-search profile, including target roles, experience, education, compensation, location, languages, strengths, gaps, and CV variants.
Why use it?
It avoids repeatedly collecting information that is already in your application materials and keeps your strengths, gaps, preferences, and CV versions in one place.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

build-profile scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

build-profile

Two outputs, gitignored, mirroring the committed examples:

  • profile/candidate.md — prose, the shape of profile/candidate.example.md (Strengths · Gaps · Languages · CV variants). Assessment skills Read this at scoring time.
  • profile/profile.json — structured, the shape of profile/profile.example.json (name, title, experienceYears, education, targetRole, targetComp, location, strengths, gaps, languages, cvVariants).

Pick a mode

Mode A — parse existing materials (preferred). If the user has a CV (run /ingest-cv first or point at profile/cv/), a LinkedIn export/URL, or an old profile, read those and synthesize. Don't interrogate them for facts already on the page.

Mode B — interview. Otherwise ask a short set of questions (don't exhaust them):

  1. Target role(s) and seniority.
  2. Core strengths — the 4–6 things they're genuinely strong at.
  3. Honest gaps — what they'd be stretched or rejected on.
  4. Comp expectations (currency, monthly band) and location/timezone/relocation.
  5. Languages + levels.
  6. CV variants they keep (e.g. a backend/LLM CV vs a voice CV).

Synthesize

  • Be concise and honest — gaps are as useful as strengths (they drive accurate level/tech scoring and gap-defense in interview prep). Don't inflate.
  • Keep candidate.md skimmable: bullet lists, no fluff.
  • cvVariants[] entries reference files under profile/cv/ (see /ingest-cv).

Finish

Write both files (never overwrite without confirming if they already exist — offer to merge). Then tell the user they're ready to score roles (/add-vacancy) and that the files are local (gitignored). No bake needed — the profile isn't part of the board.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
